SIP-000 Conceptual Clarity #2

Open njordhov opened 3 years ago

It stands to reason that the Stacks blockchain is made of more than just software; it is also made of the people who run it.

Good framing! However, further below there is a reference to the Stacks ecosystem when people are included, which makes it ambigous whether the Stacks blockchain includes humans or not. Perhaps these terms could already be clarified in conjunction with the quoted sentence from the introduction. Maybe something like:

It stands to reason that the Stacks blockchain is made of more than just software; it is also made of the people who run it, forming the Stacks ecoystem.

Elsewhere in the document, there are references to the Stack blockchain that seems to primarily refer to technology/software. There should be conceptual clarity about when the reference is to the technology vs the ecosystem.

Hey @njordhov, thanks for pointing this out! I'll try to clarify this.

Apologies for the late reply -- the repo isn't sending me emails when issues get created for some reason (EDIT: forgot to watch it).
